Mahjong

Mahjong is a tile game with some similarities to Gin Rummy. It requires skill, strategy and luck. We play the Hong Kong version of Mahjong, which is nothing like the online solitaire game. If you play American Mahjong you will see significant differences, but should pick up quickly. This is a fun ‘come as you are’ activity, but requires participants to arrive 15 minutes early to help set up the games. We are a small group, therefore weekly attendance is expected as much as possible. You are also asked to advise the leader if you cannot come or need to leave early, as this will impact seating assignments. If interested in trying Hong Kong Mahjong, the Brockville Public Library has a Thursday afternoon group where you can play and learn.
